Glycoproteins and lipoproteins are formed by:
Correct answer: C. Golgi apparatus
- A. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
- B. Free ribosomes
- C. Golgi apparatus
- D. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Explanation
Golgi apparatus helps in modifying, sorting, and packaging of proteins for secretion and also helps in the transportation of lipid and forms lysosomes. Proteins and lipids synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum combine with carbohydrates to form glycoproteins and glycolipids in the Golgi apparatus where their glycosylation occurs

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
